Future tense
[edit]Is there any evidence that Proto-Slavic had a future tense? I see nothing about this in OCS grammars. Lunt's grammar simply says that the present may function as the future, not that it always does. So the table should be changed to display "present". —Rua (mew) 18:08, 20 May 2019 (UTC)
- @Rua: 1) I don't know, in some Slavic languages perfective present means future (Czech, Polish, Russian). 2) Yes, but it emphasizes perfective present. 3) Is there OCS examples where perfective present means present?—Игорь Тълкачь (talk) 20:26, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
- The present tense of perfective verbs is used with future meaning. But it's still referred to as the present tense in OCS grammars, and not as an entirely separate tense, because it's not morphologically distinct from the present tense. —Rua (mew) 20:46, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
- Renamed 'future' to 'present' for the sake of morphology.—Игорь Тълкачь (talk) 22:25, 23 May 2019 (UTC)

Sorting
[edit]The module currently seems to not apply the sorting keys defined in Module:languages/datax. You can see in Category:Proto-Slavic verbs ending in -C- that Č appears at the end, while it should appear under C according to the sorting rules. —Rua (mew) 11:09, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
